iting examples of late King of Pop Michael Jackson and late rocker Elvis Presley, megastar Amitabh Bachchan says a person becomes more valuable after his death than his earnings during his lifetime. Talking about value of one’s life after death, the ‘Piku’ star shared on his blog on Sun-

day: “Would Elvis and Michael have known what worth they were leaving behind? Or if they knew, would they know, its value... and more.” “Death was graciously more value for them, than a lifetime of earning.

arner Bros unveiled the “Wonder Woman” trailer at San Diego Comic Con and Gadot, who stars as Diana, warrior princess of the Amazons, revealed she took inspiration from the real-life Princess Diana, after watching a documentary on the late British royal, reported Collider. “She leads from her heart not from her head. And that describes this Diana,” Gadot said. The trailer’s official description said: “Before she was Wonder Woman, she was Diana, princess of the

Amazons, trained to be an unconquerable warrior. “Raised on a sheltered island paradise, when an American pilot crashes on their shores and tells of a massive conflict raging in the outside world, Diana leaves her home, convinced she can stop the threat. “Fighting alongside man in a war to end all wars, Diana will discover her full powers... And her true destiny.” “Wonder Woman” also stars Chris Pine, Robin Wright, Connie Nielsen, David Thewlis, Danny Huston, Elena Anaya and Ewen Bremner.
